Floatin Along


I's just been floatin along, enjoyin some pool time wif my momma.  Even if today wuz kinda cloudy.


And even if today's white nail polish makes my furs look kinda dingy in comparison.

It has not been a real good summer to be one of my long time pals.  It are just gettin depressin.  Yesterday, my good buddy, Atticus Finch, founder of da Westies Unite group on Dogster, had to go to da Rainbow Bridge.  He wuz only 10 1/2 and got nasty liver cancer.


Wuzn't he a good lookin guy?  I's gonna miss him big time.  And den dis morning, I found out dat da human momma of my Westie pals Darby and Caleigh has liver cancer too.  And da prognosis are not good.  :(

Sorry to be such a downer lately, but dere are some good news.  My big birfday surprise are OFFFISHULLY ON!  It are actually happenin and I's so eggcited!  Anybody got any guesses??

REMINDER: Please send in your pics for my 13th Birthday Pool Pawty by Tuesday, September 8th to whitleywestie@gmail.com.  Any kind of water picture (pool, ocean, lake) would be pawsome, but if ya's not a water pup, dat's fine - dere'll be a lot of fun for landlubbers on da patio by da grill!  I's been gettin in pics and so far dey all look pawsome!

  5. We're so sorry about your friends, Whitley....Atticus Finch was one handsome fella. And we're terribly sorry to hear about your friend's mom, too. Sending pawsitive vibes your way and their way.
    Have you checked out the PucciniFoundation.org? Parental Unit is doing their social media, and they are an amazing resource for both human and pet cancers. And they raise money for pet cancer research and some of the funds are earmarked to help pet parents in need....And excellent organization!
